Chris Anderson –
This is my 2rd year with Golden Chimes from Oakes (bought it 3 years ago in fall). I have it in full sun, but just like last year, it barely bloomed–1 scape and 3 buds. Also, the scape is only about 12″ high (same height as last year). The flowers are delightfully different and I like the deep gold color. The soil is very heavy clay in this location, but Rocket City doesn’t seem to mind and blooms like crazy on 36″ scapes. I will move it to more loamy soil and see what it does next year.
